Tide is a minimal and pragmatic async web application framework for Rust, built on async-std, that provides routing, middleware, cookies, sessions, and JSON body handling for building HTTP servers and APIs. It emphasizes a friendly, rapid-development API with sensible defaults and first-class async/await support.

Use cases

  • build a web api in rust
  • async http server framework for rust
  • serve json endpoints in rust
  • rust web framework with routing and middleware
  • create a rest api backend in rust
  • handle http requests with sessions and cookies in rust

When to choose

  • you want a small, batteries-included Rust web framework with sessions, cookies, and logging enabled by default
  • you are building async web services or JSON APIs on top of async-std
  • you value a simple, friendly API for rapid development over maximum configurability

When to avoid

  • you need an actively developed framework with a large growing ecosystem - axum or actix-web see far more activity
  • you need built-in HTTP/2 or TLS support or deep integration with the tokio ecosystem
  • you are starting a new long-term project, since Tide's release cadence has stalled with only beta releases since late 2021
